It does work with the following patch--for the mentioned cases.
In case of a=c~-b then there is only space before the

In tbl, it's controlled with the "center" option for the table, and
defaults to left-justified. In pic it's controlled by .PS, outside pic
itself.
I have a page of interspersed tbl and dformat elements. It
